[Soundwave]

Not too long ago, Hurricane Katrina laid devastation to New Orleans, a landmark city in American culture. Corpses floated in the flooded streets, and some buildings fell victim to Katrina's devastation. However, the hurricane was the least of the New Orleans residents' problems. From out of a bubbling bay crawled a massive, hideous monster with a black oil-like liquid pouring from its shoulder glands and streaming down its body. The monster acted as if he ignored the oil's presence, but as the liquid dripped onto houses below, the sludge corroded through the roofs with ease. The amphibious mutation Oophaga roared as he made his presence known to the Katrina victims, ready to tear the city apart.

[Monster Master]

Thunderous booms began to echo through the city as lightning danced in the skies. A red and blue wave of energy shot down to the ground like a meteor. The water it touched was turned to steam, and from outside the circular, tube-like wall, an entire geyser of H20 was sent sky high.

The wall of energy began to die... Turning into streaks of light that flickered like a constant series of sparks. As steam spread throughout the flooded streets, a hissing shriek came...

The light show finally died down and a towering juggernaut stood. A beast of a sight it is... A towering mech with countless weapons. The beast shrieked again and lifted its large Minigun... and pointed it directly at the mutant.

Spermagnus slithers in, its gurgles of anticipation signifying the beginning of the carnage.

[Soundwave]

Oophaga shakes his head as he roars, announcing his animosity for his opponent. Charging forward, the frog-like monstrosity sinks his fangs into the right side of Arsenal's neck, near the shoulder area. The sharpened tips of the fangs with the aid of the corrosive saliva allowed for the canines to tear into the steel like a knife through hot butter; at the same time, his left hand held Arsenal's right hip while the left hand's set of deadly claws tear deep into Arsenal's left thigh.. As Oophaga compressed his jaws tightly and groans and creaked emanated from the point of impact, his saliva slobbered all over the steel, tenderizing it. So, when Oophaga forcefully ripped his head away, a huge chunk of steel came with it, exposing clumps of wires. Steam clouded around the corroded portions of metal.

Oophaga steps back a short distance. Suddenly, Arsenal's sensors begin detecting damage to his body from some external force. The machine noticed a strange gas lingering from the shoulder pores; this must've been the source. Oophaga smirks as his corrosive mist begins eating away at Arsenal's hull...

[Monster Master]

The robotic juggernaut's head tilted to the side as if questioning the acid-equipped pollution kaiju. The super weapon lifted its minigun arm once again, but rotate it did not. Streams of death leaped from around the weapon just as the 30-meter missiles launched. Three in total.

The first smashed square in Oophaga's skull and sent, not just the beast stumbling backward, but a blast of blood and flesh sky high. The other two followed, the next exploding on the kaiju's knee cap and making it fall to a kneeling stance as ooze fell from the wound. The final missile detonated on his shoulder, finally sending the kaiju falling backward as more blood sprayed against the building sides.

Laughter seem to come from the robot as the minigun began to rotate and send thousands of tank-sized rounds a minute toward the fallen mutant.

Oophaga pushes off the ground with legs and hand, diving out of harm's way. The bullets harmlessly ripped through a building. As Oophaga lands, massive globs of an oily, ink-black liquid propel from the shoulder openings on the organic creature. The liquids splatter all over Arsenal's face and chest. One glob landed on the exposed right neck area which led to the harmful liquids seeping inside the machine. A sizzling noise could be heard as the liquid streamed down the machine's body, eating away at his armor. Showers of sparks erupted from the gaping hole in the neck as the acids ate away at various wires, causing a great deal of damage.

While Arsenal was experiencing technical difficulties (including impaired vision), the death-bringing abomination picks him up and hurls him towards a cluster of drenched buildings…

[Monster Master]

Like mountains of glass the man-made structures shattered, but the damage to Arsenal was far from what one would call devastating. As the smoke and dust spread to and fro the streets, the hulking machine stood upright, its maw parting to release a cybernetic roar. Its minigun arm rose up and the air around it quickly began to warp as three streams of super-heated Plasma Fire was cast fourth.

Like the flame that only exists in Hell, the windows in surrounding buildings melted into burning red mounds of fluid and steam quickly began to rise from the cold water. The three streams lanced onto Oophaga. The water that coated his body boiled on contact for just a brief second before turning to steam. His flesh burned and smoked as he fell backward, strands of ash drifting on the steaming water. The burned chest and head continued to smoke before falling into the water. At once, the water began to bubble and steam even more as the super-heated head of Oophaga was sent under.

With a shriek the machine turned off its Plasma Flamethrowers. As smoke and bubbles continued to rise from the area Oophaga fell into, the gun began to blaze again, sending hundreds upon hundreds of bullets to the fallen mutant.

[Soundwave]

The bullets ripped through the water, but Arsenal was unable to see if the projectiles were hitting their mark. His suspicions were answered when the aquatic monstrosity leaped out of the water unscathed. The creature's 60,000 tons smash feet-first into Arsenal, bringing the titan down to the ground. As Oophaga attempted to crush Arsenal with his weight (creating groans and cracking noises from Arsenal's body since Arsenal's armor was a little tender from the corrosive oils and smashing into a building), Oophaga swiped his claws at Arsenal's face. The sharp and powerful nails tear into Arsenal's armor, sending chunks of it flying to the sides.

After a series of minutes, Oophaga restrains his temper and gets off his enemy before he destroyed Arsenal. The machine’s face was horribly disfigured. Chunks were ripped out of his exterior. Each frayed wire's tip that hung out of the gaps in gnarled, twisted forms released showers of sparks every few moments. To top things off, Arsenal had two massive feet prints in his chest, complimented by a series of cracks that spiderwebbed from the edges of the dents.

With Arsenal badly damaged, Oophaga decides to strike while his opponent was vulnerable. The beast sends out globs of corrosive slime at his opponent's chest...

[Monster Master]

The cybernetic fiend snarled in hatred as his chest quickly popped up and spewed forth more streams of Plasma Fire. The globs of acid were quickly engulfed in the stream of blazing heat and incinerated. That over-sized guppy stepped back, shouting in anger as the chest of Arsenal began to unload its weaponry.

Dozens of missiles flew directly upward and then came down. Each may not be overly strong, but in sheer numbers... The effects were more devastating than anything seen prior in this bout.

Chunks of flesh and muscle were sent sky high as the missiles fell down upon Oophaga. His shoulders turned into gapping craters that bled furiously, and one of the missiles found its mark on the beast's eye, nearly blowing it out of socket and sending a stream of flesh blood to the dank waters below it.

The monster fell to the side, balancing himself on one arm as a structure shuddered under its bulk. With a cry, the mechanized warrior stood up, shrieking as he watched on with magnificent glee. His eyes flared to life as he locked on target and began to fire his own eye beams at the downed behemoth.

[Soundwave]

Oophaga's body spasmed a brief second upon impact from the eye beams. Oophaga staggered to his feet and shot his gaze at Arsenal. Payback was about to strike the machine hard.

Massive globs of the infamous corrosive sludge rocket out of the shoulder glands. The exposed chest compartment becomes drenched heavily in the liquids; steam immediately wisped from the compartment as the acid went to work. Another glob landed on Arsenal's face, seeping inside via the gaps in his face's armor, while the rest landed on his minigun. As the acid ate away at the circuitry in his head, the rest of the liquids ate into the missiles on the minigun and in the chest. This in turned cause a chain explosion, sending massive shards of armor flying from the beast's arm and chest as it fell onto its back. Smoke heavily clouded from the sparking, damaged chest, decorated with cracks and missing chunks and the armor was heavily blackened from the scorching. Clouds of pure black smoke clouded out of the head's gaps in addition. Electricity surged around his head thanks to the heavy damage. To put it bluntly, Arsenal looked like he just went through Hell and back.

Oophaga roared in satisfaction. While his opponent’s movements were limited, the amphibious creature rolls his opponent onto its front and jabs his left claws down, aiming to tear them into Arsenal’s left side of his stomach…

[Monster Master]

But the machine wasn't as shy at melee combat as the mutant would hope. The mutant obviously wasn't the sharpest knife in the drawer or he would have noticed the large, always rotating sail-saw that rested on the machine's back in moments just for this. As the giant lumbered, just reaching down, the mech pressed his hands and feet into the ground and pushed upward...

Not just from the monster's belly... but also from his maw... Came a spray of gore as the sail saw was cast forth into the belly. The rotating saw that was as long as the mech was tall continued to rip into the monster's body. By the time the pollutant-spawn fell back, its entire front side... from groin to neck, was nothing more than one overly-large gapping and bleeding wound. The waters quickly turned a sickening mesh of black and red as the monster's vital blood was discarded from its body.

Arsenal stood up, its entire back covered in red gore as it shrieked in satisfaction. Payback was, indeed, a bitch. Arsenal stepped back, roaring even more as he lifted his minigun... In such pain and damage.. the mech figured not even this beast could dodge at point blank.

[Soundwave]

Arsenal underestimates his cunning foe. Oophaga's tail, which had gone unnoticed, had wrapped around the mech's leg and tripped him. Arsenal stumbles back as his bullets pierced the sky.

Oophaga rises up with a gleam of hatred in his eyes. He raises his healthy hand and jabs it into Arsenal's tender right thigh. The appendage grips the metal hard as well as a handful of wires before tearing out a vast slab of metal and wires which was greeted by a shower of sparks from the badly damaged leg. As Arsenal fell to his damaged leg, Oophaga kicks his foot up, crashing it into Arsenal's already heavily damaged face. The machine toppled over into some drenched buildings. One of his optics was heavily cracked and worn away. Picking up Arsenal, Oophaga throws his opponent a short distance at solid ground below…

[Monster Master]

The mech, thankfully, was built sturdy enough to survive such a throw with only minimal damage. Arsenal's robotic hiss soon echoed through the city's streets as his eyes flashed with demonic energy. Searing beams of laser light came from only one eye, and quickly the beam began to focus itself... Transforming into a much, much more lethal Laser Cutter.

The beam was destined to strike not on Oophaga's face... But right in its eye. By only a stroke of luck, he managed to move and the beam cut just above the eye, but the sheer flow of blood that was now sprawling across his eye was destined to do more bad than good, at least for the mutant.

The beam cut off, but then fired again, auto-targeting the monstrosity's other eye to fully blind it.

[Soundwave]

Oophaga dives out of the way and charges full-force. He rams shoulder-first into Arsenal's torso, creating a dent. Oophaga kept charging; in the end, he pushes himself and Arsenal into the water. Arsenal's systems sustained heavy (but not crippling damage) from the water entering inside his body through the breaches in his armor. Now that the two were at the bottom of the bay or whatever it was, Oophaga grabs Arsenal's head and smashes it down, intending to smash it into the rocky bottom below with a good amount of force... (and Oophaga is holding Arsenal in such a way that he won’t be able to bring his arms up or use the back spine thing)
